Here is my temperature cross stitch latest update.
We are going to see temperatures in the higher range this coming week.Then I finished my latest paint by numbers. I am really pleased with it. I love the bright colours.
I am a British born, living in Canada since May of 1989. My blog is about all aspects of my daily life.
Here is my temperature cross stitch latest update.
We are going to see temperatures in the higher range this coming week.New month, so finished of the May section and started on the June section with my temperature cross stitch.
Now is it just me, or do you also think this year is just scooting on by? May was a wet month but nice and warm. It has cooled off a little so the a/c hasn't been on the last few days, which is nice.
As I have been reading a lot of books, my paint by numbers has suffered. Here is what I have finished so far on it:
It's going to be lovely when finished, but I am struggling seeing all the numbers. They are very faint.
What have you been up to crafting wise?
I finally finished the second piece of cross stitch that I am putting together for a project at the end of the year. I have been putting it off as I find the back stitch fiddly. I am liking how they are looking though.
I also finished the latest paint by numbers. I don't like it. Believe me when I say I followed all the colour numbers. It looks as though the background with the light mountains is wrong. I may go over it again with other colours to deepen the colour there. It may look better then? I sound as though what I am talking about???? I don't!! 😁
I posted another book review here. I borrowed this book from the library. It was as good as the first in the series.
This week's cross stitch update, also involves the start of another month. When you think about it, January and February went by quite fast; or at least I thought so?
We have had some warm weather, but it was interspersed with some cold days. which has resulted in hubby being as sick as a dog and me not feeling great either. I wish the weather would make up it's mind what it's doing. We have actually had temperatures into the double digits.
As I finished that puzzle I hunted out another paint by numbers I had picked up at Dollarama. This one doesn't need a magnifying glass to see the numbers I am pleased to say. For under $4 this provides hours of entertainment.
I managed to get another book finished and you can read the review here and start another one. "Daughter's of War," by Dinah Jefferies, again set in France during World War II.
Have you had a productive week with your leisure time?
back in a while. Nothing wrong...........
